There are some bad brand names in the NBA: Utah Jazz, L.A. Lakers and others I just don’t understand. When trying to be original while picking a team name, why not make it relative to the geographical area, eh? With Michael Jordan supposdely ready to buy the Charlotte Bobcats, they have been contimplating rebranding the team entirely. Matt Moore of Hardwood Paroxysm couldn’t agree more.
